Not sure.  I tried to explain the situation best I could.  I think I did a better job of it than the Mail article you posted.

What did I miss?

You left out that the government put the word out publicly that councils should apply to cancel their elections and if they did that the government would approve it. This was not a council initiative, but a government one. That is important.

But the really big thing, the grey thing, the elephant if you will, which is not in the wild but in fact inside the room, is that this is a fig leaf of an excuse to cancel elections which are expected to go against the government and there is no excuse for it and a very sinister precedent it would be.

Also: Justice delayed is justice denied. Election delayed is election cancelled.

I don't think this is a great omission. It's a pathetic excuse for an authoritarian government to undermine democracy. That is the truth of the matter.

so you're on record here and now to say that if the gov't tried to cancel elections that they are predicted to lose, that would be sinister.
is that what we're hearing?

What surprise.  Daily Mail readers don’t need to know why the elections were going to be postponed.  Only to hear Reform telling them how terrible it all was.

The stated reason is not the actual reason. Mentioning it is bordering on spreading misinformation.

I haven't heard you apologize for your own omission anyway.

spreading misinformation is bad too and lying about the actual reason is also bad?
even in case of omission?


these are all bad things?
this is amazing

Where’s your apology for omitting all the things I explained for our fellow forum readers, and posting a Daily Mail article with zero information about the circumstances of these elections?

Oh there’s a fuck tonne more I could try to explain about it all, but I’m not going to write too much of an essay on the subject here. Just so you can declare some omissions are absolutely fine and demand an apology for others.  Which is in no way based on your hyper partisan bullshit of course.

There’s probably more I omitted I don’t fully understand myself.   

I will add that we don’t all have local elections at the same time anyway.  Some councils have elections in May, others don’t, and some have partial elections.

My point is that there is no obligation for everyone to include every information. You didn't apologize, I didn't apologize, the Mail didn't apologize. That's fine.

I particular, those who abuse the power of government to undermine democracy don't deserve to be portrayed in the best light at every turn.

How does someone become as useless as Stormer?

Child rape.

are you turning in your red hat?

Are you turning in your blue hat now that its known that democrats and republicans get together and rape kids on an island with one another?



F is for friends that rape kids together...

fuck the dems (if you haven't been paying attention)

i'm pretty consistent.
you're pretty consistent.
would be interesting for torvo to vocalize how consistent his consistency is inconsistent.


but alas
he's a coward..

I love that you're deep diving into the vagaries of local government in the UK, really useful.  My bins weren't collected on Tuesday, can you get on to that?

Whataboutism is the second to last refuge of the scoundrel.

I take it that you don't think it is significant that your psychopath PM is cancelling elections. Will you find it significant when the parliamentary elections are "postponed"?

Torvo, what a dickhead.

We just had an election, the Greens romped in, yea.

Torvo, what a dickhead.

What is your point?

That there was a by-election of a single seat and that somehow erases the fact that you psychopath PM has already cancelled multitude of elections?

Point being we just had one of the things you said was cancelled, could you explain just how our PM, (something you have just said in another of your disjointed babbling, nobody cares about), is a psychopath?

You just said nobody cares about it.

Get your mother to re-read my post and explain slowly what I said, or you could just fuck off, either is good.

Yes, you have that unfortunate tendency to pair requests with insults, that is not in fact how the world works.

torvo, your inability to address anything in the discussion reduces the relevancy of your point you tried to make, and there the other party no longer required to converse in good faith becuase you are showing bad faith.


that is how the world works.
if you don't want to participate, then don't cry when we make fun of your stupid ass.

Ethnic campaigning.

Like Ted Cruz?
Mike Huckabee?
Ben Shapiro?

There can be no doubt left.

Keir Starmer,

the psychopath

the Anti-Churchill

is a CCP agent.

The Stranded in Port debacle completes the evidence.

what did Starmer actually do that makes you not like him?

could you explain just how our PM is a psychopath?

Child rape.

what did Starmer actually do that makes you not like him?

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cqj9g11p1ezo

Starmer likes to pretend hes not a fan of Trump but when Trump rocks up in a limo and says "get in loser we are going to bomb Iran" Starmer lifts up the hem of his dress and jumps right in the back.

Hes a hypocrite like any other politician.
